A magnificent example of this rarely faceted gem material. Wulfenite is a lead mineral that has exceedingly high optical properties so, if done correctly, faceted gems are capable of dazzling brilliance and impressive dispersion. This one is remarkably large and clean for the material - allowing for flashes of color across the spectrum. The color is nicely consistent (a beautiful orange for a Namibian stone) and the stone looks great with flashes of dispersion from all angles. Gorgeous custom US cutting and a fine high polish. A very fine Wulfenite.
